Type of article: Article

Summary

Highbush blueberry fruit sealed in low density polyethylene packages, were incubated at 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 deg C until oxygen and carbon dioxide reached a steady state. The oxygen partial pressures were studied and correlated with storage temperature. Oxygen uptake, carbon dioxide production and respiratory quotient were studied in various conditions. Conclusions are drawn.
